Abstract
Apical cell contraction triggers tissue folding and invagination in epithelia. During Drosophila gastrulation, ventral furrow formation was thought to be driven by smooth, purse-string-like constriction of an actomyosin belt underlying adherens junctions. Now Martin et al. report in Nature that ventral furrow formation is triggered by asynchronous pulsed contractions of the apical acto-myosin cortex in individual cells.
